So when is this going to get fixed. I wasn't even gone an hour and the actual login takes forever.

    NUTS!

    Logged in since late yesterday and all day today until an hour or two ago.

    Now I had to log in again.

    Why is this so difficult to fix?

    Aaarrgh!

    Hey, Adobe.  Stop giving me a lot of Jive and forcing me to log in again and again!  Really!  When is something as simple as this going to be fixed?

    I hate to think how long it will take to come up with a decent user interface.

    I'm starting to get the distinct impression that it doesn't matter one damn bit to the Adobe Powers That Be when it comes to the existence of these forums.

    Don, I have a friend who has been dealing with the exact same issue.  It's been so frustrating for him, he has basically decided the forums aren't worth the time they are taking to use.

    Adobe has lost another good guy due to this forum change.

    trying to use (login and post) was painful at best this morning. the login page was temporarily unavailable. I was logged out in the middle of posting an answer. and couldn't get back in for half an hour or more. This forum is pathetic.

    Agreed.

    Among the many other quirks, last night it logged me out just when I hit the post button on a largish, convoluted response.  Lost everything I had typed.

    Lost everything I had typed

    that's happened to me several times since the switch. and i find myself writing less and less because of the fact that there's a good chance it won't get posted anyway...

    it's sad how adobe is just tossing away such a great resource as these forums have been all these years.

    CRAP!

    I turned my back and got logged out again!  Is this problem really this hard to fix or have we already reached the level of (in)competence of Jive Software.  I'm not getting a good feeling about this New and Improved edition.

    Yeah. Today I have only been checking the site sporadically so I have had to log in 4 or 5x already (any time I don't reload for more than an hour, I think).

    Sigh... having to sign in at least once a day, sometimes more, means I am reading less

    If it wasn't for the fact that I still do LEARN about the various Adobe programs I use (Acrobat & Dreamweaver & Photoshop at work, Premiere & Encore at home) I'd just go away for a week (or two... three...???) and come back later once all the setup issues are solved

    But, since I do learn something once in awhile, and have no idea when that "ah ha" message may post... I keep checking in every day, and hoping the forum will be faster and cookies will work better

    I use Forte Agent for newsgroup access to a few other discussion areas... and will have to say that if I had been used to NNTP access to Adobe forums, then had to come to these forums, I might just quit and find somewhere else to read

    Speed and cookies are my two gripes, so I hope both improve in the near future

    One thing I am doing is, when I see a subject I want to read, I right click and open in a new tab... works much better than directly clicking a link and then having to go back to the starting page

    Its seems that there is no rhyme or reason to the login and out. I'll be logged in one minute then click on a new forum and all the reply buttons are gone. This has got to be the flakiest forum. Even the Apple forum doesn't log you out in the middle of a session.

    I was logged in this morning when a launched my browser.  However, after leaving the house for 45 minutes I returned to find I had been logged out AGAIN.  Is there any hope this is going to get fixed?

    April 14, 2009

    logged out about an hour or so ago. logged in... but before i could answer, i had to get back to something else. in the old forums i would've been through 3 or more topics and maybe provided an answer to one or 2. instead i got to view and answer a grand total of ZERO.  nice system...

    Made a quick pass through a few threads, opened another site and 15 minutes later returned to find I had been logged out again.  The is ridiculous.

    Phooey!  I left the browser opened to this forum and was logged out while i was away for a few minutes.

    Things are going to be erratic for a while yet. Yesterday I was logged out in the middle of making a post – this morning, after an overnight shut-down, I was still logged in.

    April 11, 2009

    I've gotten to a point that I'll click the account button to force a new log in if I've been gone for a period of time. I've had times when it shows logged in or not in either or both spots... and you never really know whether you truly are or not. I hope it stablizes into a predictable pattern at some point.
